Guess the world
by listening

Can you identify a city by its morning rush? A beach by its waves? A market by its rhythm? Tokyo sounds different than Marrakech . A Mediterranean cove has its own voice. Soundguessr turns geography into a game of careful listening–and the world becomes a richer place when you learn to hear it.

What if you could travel the world with your eyes closed?

Every place has a sound. The way Tokyo wakes up at dawn. How waves break on a Mediterranean shore. The rhythm of life in a Marrakech souk. These aren't just noises–they're acoustic fingerprints, unique to each location. Once you learn to listen, you'll recognize them anywhere. Click any location name to hear what we mean.

Soundguessr isn't about memorizing facts. It's about developing a deeper relationship with the world through sound. Whether you're testing your intuition or discovering places you never knew existed, each audio clip is a story waiting to be understood.

Test your intuition

How well do you really know the world? Some sounds will feel instantly familiar. Others will challenge everything you thought you knew about a place.

Train your ears

Most of us move through life half–listening. Soundguessr demands your full attention. You'll start noticing the subtle differences–the way a city's energy shifts, how nature sounds different across continents.

Discover the unexpected

You'll encounter sounds from places you've never visited–maybe never even heard of. It's like armchair travel, but through your ears. Each discovery expands your understanding of what the world sounds like.

Three ways to play

Daily Challenge

Each morning brings a new sound from somewhere unexpected. Listen, locate it on the map, and see how your instincts measure up. The leaderboard resets at midnight–every day is a fresh start.

Custom Challenges

Curate your own journey. Build challenges around themes you love–maybe "Morning Markets" or "Urban Soundscapes"–or explore collections crafted by fellow listeners. The community's creativity knows no bounds.

Quick Play

No commitment, no pressure. Just hit play and let the world's sounds wash over you. Perfect for those moments when you want to explore without the stakes.

Why Soundguessr feels different

Intelligent Scoring

Distance matters, but so does difficulty. Nail a remote location? That's worth more. Get within 50km of a bustling city? Impressive. Our scoring rewards both precision and the challenge of the location itself.

Authentic Recordings

Every sound is captured on location. No stock libraries, no AI–generated audio. When you hear a market in Marrakech or a train in Tokyo, you're hearing the real thing–recorded by people who were actually there.

Your Collections

Share your world. Create themed challenges that reflect your interests, your travels, or your curiosity. The best collections often come from players who know a place intimately–and want others to discover it too.

Let's talk

We're a small team passionate about sound, travel, and the stories places tell. Have a question, an idea, or just want to say hello? We'd love to hear from you.
